Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0038999A1] A box for use in packaging comprises a tubular sleeve (10) defining a through passage, a planar divider (12) extending across the passage, a drive belt (50) which passes around the divider, a tray (40) and a pull-out tab member (41) each extending into the passage and attached to the drive belt. In the closed position the tray (40) and tab member (41) are fully inside the tubular sleeve. When the tab member (41) is pulled out of the sleeve (10) in a first direction, the drive belt (50) is forced to slide around the divider and the tray (40) moves out of the sleeve (10) in the opposite direction. The tray (40) can be used to house any consumer product, for example CDs, confectionery, pharmaceuticals. The tab member (41) can be used to convey information to the consumer.
